I think I probably first had sushi 2 months out. If you're doing sashimi (sushi fish with no rice) you might be able to do it sooner--don't force it down if it doesn't feel right though. Just gotta be careful because a lot of Americanized rolls have a ton of extra ingredients in them that load on calories, sashimi will be your best bet until you can stomach rice (may be a few months, I'm just now at 6 months getting to the point where it doesn't hurt to eat rice) and then when you can have rice you'll want to stick to simple rolls with only 2 or 3 ingredients.

Congratulations on surgery!

I had sushi last week (2 months) and I had no problems at all, miso Soup is really great.

What does your doctor/nut say? They're the best ones to ask.

As others have mentioned, probably sashimi (raw fish) is a better bet than sushi (rice + whatever) since I doubt very much that rice is on your meal plan this early out. A lot of people on these boards have a real problem with rice, even months (or longer) after their surgery.

I had at 3 or 4 weeks out rolls made with smoked salmon, cream cheese and avocado, no rice. No issues. Although it was totally weird just eating one order when I used to eat 4 or 5! But it was all I could eat! Amazing.

I had sashimi at about 4 weeks. I'm a full year out and still find sushi rice is not my friend. It expands a lot once in the stomach and puts a quick end to a good meal. I love a sushi place that does a version of palapala. That's tuna and avocado chunks in a rice wine vinegar sauce (usually served as an appetizer.) The amount is meal sized for a sleever, and there is no rice to bog down a great tasting Protein source!!

Rice tends to swell in the sleeve so it really depends on whether you can tolerate it. I recommend eating very very slowly and in very small quantities.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
